Indiana Democratic representative accuses 18-month-old baby of racism:

• Democratic Rep. Vanessa Summers made the comment during a debate on the Religious Freedom Restoration Act in the House, referencing Republican Rep. Jud McMillin’s child.
  
  “I told Jud McMillin I love his son, but he’s scare of me because of my color,” Ms. Summers said to Mr. McMmillin, who is white, during last week’s debate, the Indy Star reported March 24.
  
  Ms. Summers later defended her comment, recalling the meeting with Mr. McMillin’s son earlier in the session.
  
  “He looked at me like I was a monster and turned around and cried,” Ms. Summer said, the newspaper reported. “And I told him you need to introduce your child to some people that are dark-skinned so he will not be scared.”
  
  Mr. McMillin said Ms. Summers‘ comment was “unfortunate.”

She said something stupid, he helped pass a stupid and discriminatory law that fucked his state over. I don't blame you for shouting "squirrel" though.

Is it racist to point out this woman's poor command of English?

I've noticed a frequent occurrence in the recent years that when you point out something factually true about blacks, blacks and liberals generally decry it as "racist". They don't deny it, but they bury it under allegations of racism.

Generously understated on McMillin's part.

I haven't heard the audio but that could easily have been a typo. News sites don't tend to proofread that often before posting online.
